Specifications
The numbers a plant engineer asks for
New Era installs the conductive grade. Here is the resistance band it is published at, how that compares with the dissipative grade, and the rest of the cured properties, so you can check the floor against your own ESD program before anybody quotes it.
Conductive
2.5 x 10^4 to 10^6 ohms
Charge drains fastest in this band. Tested to ASTM D257 and ANSI/ESD S7.1.
Dissipative
10^6 to 1.0 x 10^9 ohms
The band most electronics assembly programs specify. Available if yours calls for it.

Values are the manufacturer published figures for the conductive system New Era installs. ANSI/ESD S20.20 caps a qualifying floor at under 1 x 10^9 ohms to ground and requires the finished floor to be tested in place, so treat these as the system specification and not as a substitute for your own acceptance test. Call (832) 253-3211 and we will spec it against your program. New Era's dedicated static control site has the standard broken down in plain terms, plus static control flooring in Pearland.
What esd flooring is, and why it works in Pearland
South of Houston the soil is clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry, and slabs on it move. A hairline crack under a conductive floor is not only cosmetic: if it telegraphs through, it can break the continuity the floor depends on. We probe, route and repair cracks and joints during prep so the ground path stays whole after the clay does what clay does.
ESD Flooring across Pearland
Pearland is mostly in Brazoria County, with parts in Harris and Fort Bend counties, along SH 288, FM 518 and Beltway 8. We serve these Pearland areas:
Where static control flooring goes in
Pearland work follows the medical and business parks along 288. Here is where the floors go.
Clinic labs and imaging rooms
Specialty practices and diagnostic centers with equipment rooms that need controlled static.
Medical device repair benches
Service and refurbishing areas for monitors, pumps and imaging parts.
Small production shops
Shops building or testing electronic assemblies in business park units.
How a static control floor actually goes down
Five stages. The last one is the one most contractors skip, and it is the only one that proves the floor does what the spec says.
Diamond grind the slab
Mechanical prep to clean, profiled concrete. No acid etch, no bonding to a surface that was never opened up.
Repair and level
Cracks, joints and spalls cut out and filled, moisture tested first and primed if the slab is pushing.
Lay the ground path
The conductive layer and its grounding connections, which is the part that makes it a static control floor instead of a coloured one.
Build the system
Base, conductive media and topcoat to the thickness your spec calls for, phased area by area so the line keeps running.
Test it and hand over readings
Point to point and point to ground measured on the finished floor, in writing. A floor nobody measured is a floor nobody can certify.

ESD Flooring in Pearland FAQ
Answers for Pearland practices, shops and owners, each ending with how to reach New Era.
Where a floor has to land
Static control flooring is bought and sold on one number, resistance to ground in ohms. This is that scale. New Era installs in the conductive band, and ANSI/ESD S20.20 will not qualify a floor to the right of the ceiling marked here.
New Era installs in the conductive band, 2.5 x 10^4 to 10^6 ohms.
Can ESD static control flooring be installed in humid or cold weather in Pearland?
Yes, within limits. Material goes down between 50F and 90F, under 90 percent relative humidity, and at least 5F above the dew point. Working time drops from 35 minutes at 50F to 15 at 90F. Gulf Coast humidity means we watch the dew point closely. Call (832) 253-3211.
Do you clean up after ESD static control flooring in Pearland?
We do, and we contain it as we go. HEPA grinders, plastic barriers where needed and a final cleanup are standard on every Pearland job. Call (832) 253-3211.
What primer and topcoat do you use for ESD static control flooring?
We choose the primer after the moisture test, and the topcoat is always the conductive epoxy. Ask for the product data sheets and we will send them. Call (832) 253-3211.
Will ESD static control flooring add value when selling in Pearland?
It can, in the right buyer's eyes. Tenants running electronics want a floor that is already in spec, and documentation from the install helps a Pearland listing. Call (832) 253-3211.
Do you offer financing for ESD static control flooring in Pearland?
Ask us about current options. We will give you straight Pearland pricing and work with your budget. Call (832) 253-3211.
How much does ESD static control flooring cost in Pearland?
$4 to $14 per square foot covers most Pearland projects. What moves the number is the resistance grade you have to hit, the condition of the slab and the square footage. We walk the space, measure it and put the price in writing, so call (832) 253-3211 for an exact Pearland number.
How long does ESD static control flooring take to install in Pearland?
Two to three days for a room or bay, including prep and cure. Foot traffic returns after about 24 hours at 70F and forklifts after 7 days. Large Pearland jobs are phased. Call (832) 253-3211 to scope the timeline.
How long does ESD static control flooring last in Pearland?
13,700 psi compressive strength and 15 to 20 mg abrasion loss (ASTM D695 and ASTM D4060) is what the cured system is built to, which is why a properly prepped Pearland floor runs a decade or more under daily traffic. Prep is the variable, not the product. Get yours quoted at (832) 253-3211.
Do you diamond-grind and prep before ESD static control flooring in Pearland?
We never skip it. Grinding opens the surface so the system bonds, and testing tells us if the slab is dry enough to coat. We do not use acid etch. Call (832) 253-3211 and we will set up your Pearland test.
Is ESD static control flooring slip resistant?
It can be. We blend in anti-slip aggregate at 32 oz per batch, matched to the room, so it grips without making cleaning difficult. The round profile texture also wipes up particulate with a microfiber pad. Ask on your free Pearland quote at (832) 253-3211.
How do I clean and maintain ESD static control flooring?
A floor handed over at 2.5 x 10^4 to 10^6 ohms can be pushed out of spec by one wrong cleaner. Wax and film forming cleaners leave an insulating layer on top, and that is the most common reason a working static control floor stops passing its own test. Use a cleaner approved for static control floors and nothing else. The surface is seamless, so no grout lines hold dirt, and we leave your Pearland maintenance crew the written procedure. Call (832) 253-3211.
How do I know the prep was done right?
Look at the slab after grinding and before coating. It should be uniformly opened up, with no shiny spots or old coating in the low areas. We invite you to walk it. Call (832) 253-3211 and we will explain what good looks like.
Can you install ESD static control flooring in Pearland around our business hours?
We schedule nights, weekends and shutdown windows. The usual pattern is to take one bay at a time so production moves around us. Call (832) 253-3211 and we will build a plan around your Pearland shift calendar.
Can you apply ESD static control flooring over an existing floor in Pearland?
It depends on what is there. A well-bonded epoxy can sometimes be abraded and built on; a peeling or contaminated coating cannot. We will test and tell you. We do not cover bad floors. Call (832) 253-3211 and we will look at your Pearland floor.
What if my Pearland slab has moisture problems?
It happens often, and Gulf Coast humidity makes it worse. Our approach is to test, mitigate where needed, and only then lay the system. Coating over a wet slab is the most common reason floors blister. Call (832) 253-3211 for a free Pearland slab test.
Do you repair cracks before ESD static control flooring in Pearland?
We do. A conductive layer needs a continuous surface, so cracks and open joints get repaired during prep, not after. We include that in the quote so there are no surprises. Call (832) 253-3211 for your Pearland floor.
What colors and finishes can I get with ESD static control flooring in Pearland?
The color choice is narrower than on a decorative floor because the topcoat has to conduct. You can choose a solid color, add striping, and pick a UV stable version for daylight rooms. Call (832) 253-3211 for a Pearland sample.
Is ESD static control flooring good for commercial spaces in Pearland?
Industrial, and that is the point of the system: electronics assembly, cleanrooms, labs and testing facilities, battery and electric vehicle plants, aerospace, data server rooms, packaging lines, aircraft hangars, and any Pearland area carrying a dust or explosion risk. It is rated for heavy duty forklift and manufacturing traffic at 13,700 psi compressive. Call (832) 253-3211 to plan your project.
How does ESD static control flooring compare to other floor options?
Most coatings are made to look good and resist wear. This one has a third job, which is carrying charge to ground. That is why a standard epoxy, even a thick one, cannot stand in for it, and why S20.20 works with a number rather than a style. Call (832) 253-3211 to compare options for your Pearland space.
Will ESD flooring in Pearland handle forklifts, pallet jacks and heavy point loads?
Pallet jacks and lift trucks are fine once the floor reaches full cure, which is 7 days. Point loads from racking legs and heavy carts are the part to plan, so we ask about wheel type and weight before we choose the build. Call (832) 253-3211 and we will review your Pearland floor plan with you.
What resistance range does your ESD floor meet?
Our standard system is the conductive grade at 2.5 x 10^4 to 10^6 ohms (ASTM D257, ANSI/ESD S7.1). If your program specifies the dissipative range, 10^6 up to 1.0 x 10^9 ohms, the same family covers it. ANSI/ESD S20.20 sets the system ceiling under 1 x 10^9 ohms to ground. Call (832) 253-3211 for a free Pearland quote.
Does ESD flooring need grounding?
Without grounding, a conductive floor is just a conductive floor. We install the ground connections during the build and verify them at handover, which is what lets the floor meet the 1 x 10^9 ohm system ceiling in S20.20. Call (832) 253-3211.
Which standards does it meet?
ANSI/ESD S20.20 is the program standard and ANSI/ESD S7.1 with ASTM D257 is how the floor itself is measured. The system also meets USDA, FDA, EPA and SCAQMD requirements, carries a Class 1 flame spread rating (ASTM E648) and is eligible for LEED points. We document the test results for your records. Call (832) 253-3211 for a free Pearland quote.
Is it suitable for electronics and labs?
Very much so. Typical rooms are electronics assembly, test labs, pharmaceutical support areas and server rooms. Body voltage generation measures 15 V, and the surface resists microbial growth in testing. Call (832) 253-3211 to scope your Pearland space.
Do you test and document the performance?
We do, and the readings are yours to keep. If an auditor asks how the floor was verified, you have the numbers and where they were taken. Call (832) 253-3211 for your Pearland space.
Do you offer a warranty in Pearland?
Yes, a written 1-year warranty on workmanship. It does not cover chipping, cracking or hydrostatic pressure. Call (832) 253-3211 and we will walk you through exactly what is covered.
